The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool had aging pipes, cracked concrete and filtration problems. Trumpβs administration spent over $14 million but didn't fix the infrastructure. Now itβs covered in algae and they're dumping 12% hydrogen peroxide in it.
Thatβs the most perfect metaphor for modern Republican governance we've seen all year. Paint the surface. Ignore the problem. Try to fix the fuckup and blame somebody else.
@starsandstripes That plane had issues and flight postponed several times to address it so they probably have a good idea of the general cause, which is not to say it isn't very complex. Will take time.
@Yaddelicious@LiangRhea Exactly. It won't work. Then idiot Trump will change the rules that protect the environment which he does EVERY DAY. The retention pond is filled from a tidal basin, not a potable water source. The basin and pipes are an infinite source or organics, plus ducks, leaves, heat etc.
@NazaninNour How many thousands took to the streets in Iran when Trump said they were free survived being gunned down? An now Trump rewards the murderers with cash beyond their dreams to build more wespons, pay more thugs. Regime reinforcement. Trump Level.
